I do find it quite funny (in a non humorous way) that in the UK you can go into some shops and it is cheaper to buy energy drinks, full of sugars, than it is to buy bottled water.

I get on very well with a guy called Cabal who owns the shop near me and he says that the Kids cant get enough of them, that out of any of his drinks that he sells then he is allways having to place more orders for energy drinks over anything else.

Most energy drinks will have a warning on them that says...

"Not recommended for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or people sensitive to caffeine"

The stuff is fucking poison.... not transmission oil poison.... but poison none the less. I used to drink them but I no longer do.

I feel so much, and yet I feel nothing.
I am a rock, I am the sky, the birds and the trees and everything beyond.
I am the wind, in the fields in which I roar. I am the water, in which I drown.

Red Bull doesn't taste that amazing (though it's not terrible), but the thing with me was that I became addicted to the caffeine. Like, literally addicted to the point that I'd fall into severe depression or inexplicable anger until I had a fix. So, for my brain, that taste - bland or not - is the most delicious thing in the world, because it means another fix.

It's still hard to walk past a cooler of Red Bull and not reach in and chug one.
